The problem of how to arrive at an appropriate 3D-segmentation of a scene remains difficult.
While current state-of-the-art methods continue to gradually improve in benchmark …

The idea that connected convex surfaces, separated by concave boundaries, play an
important role for the perception of objects and their decomposition into parts has been …

This study shows how understanding of object functionality arises by analyzing objects at
the level of their parts where we focus here on primary tools. First, we create a set of primary …

While humans can easily separate unknown objects into meaningful parts, recent
segmentation methods can only achieve similar partitionings by training on human …

The objective of this study was to develop a proof of concept for using off-the-shelf Red
Green Blue-Depth (RGB-D) Microsoft Kinect cameras to objectively assess P8 rump fat (P8 …

The shading cue is supposed to be a major factor in monocular stereopsis. However, the
hypothesis is hardly corroborated by available data. For instance, the conventional stimulus …

From a theoretical point of view, the use of the shading cue involves estimates of the light
field and thus observers need to judge the light field and the shape simultaneously. The …

This study examines the kinds of shape features that mediate basic-and subordinate-level
object recognition. Observers were trained to categorize sets of novel objects at either a …

Purpose This study is an “Action-Research-based” bridge that connects sketching and
photographic processes. The article's objective encompasses designing, assessing and …

This study used eye movement patterns to examine how high-level shape information is
used during 3D object recognition. Eye movements were recorded while observers either …
